lindsey lays it all out there.

lindsey from one creative housewife sent me this. punches you in the gut, no?

And the Clock Chimes Ten

They lay in bed side by side, arms touching. The woman facing him, the man on his stomach. Their breathing is quick, but steady. She snuggles closer, her whole body pressed against him. “Come on,” she thinks to herself. Time passes. They are both silent, strangers tossed in this ship together. Struggling to survive, yet no longer clinging to one another. Still, more breaths. Her heart thumps beneath her breasts, pleading for more than mere
companionship. Yet, she makes no move.

Finally, he reaches over and takes her face in his hands. One kiss. Then two. More and more, increasing with passion as chests rise and legs become entangled. “Are you on your pill,” he asks quickly, yet quietly. “Yes, yes, absolutely,” comes her fervently whispered reply.

Arms reach, fingers slide, slowly at first, then gaining in intensity. After just a few moments, she cries out. He is a skilled lover, with intimate knowledge of all her preferences. Rolling him to his back, she turns on the charm. Blankets rustle, inhibitions are forgotten, and lips part to make way for tender skin. Just as quickly, she finds herself turned around as he begins to dominate her. Forward and back, they move together. Their rhythm and pace have been perfected over the years.

One, two, three. It won’t be long now. Then, as quickly as she came, he releases her. There he goes. All over the spread, her backside, his hand. She then fully realizes that he has lost his trust, his faith in her. Her word means little now. And they retreat to the corners from which they came.

thanks for asking me to post this lindsey. i’m a big fan of writing that cuts quickly, forcing your readers to bleed and realize that we’re all made of the same stuff. people can relate to this. people can cry to this.

people can appreciate your honesty.

how “showgirls” changed matt’s life. **SPOILER ALERT**

what’s that? i have a fabulous ass, you say? why, thank you. and if you’d like to see this ass permanently be sure to subscribe to my RSS feed or by email. do it for the ass.

“nips and slips and pennies and shits.”  — matt clay

“this is the best movie i’ve seen in three years.”  — matt clay

“if you say this movie sucks again, i will kill you.”  — matt clay, directed at his loving wife (oh and he’s kidding folks.  he can’t kill me – i hold the key to his balls).

as you can tell, watching the movie showgirls changed the inner workings of matthew’s (barely there) soul.  he has crafted a statue out of vegan butter in honor of elizabeth berekly which would be all fine and dandy if it didn’t hinder my ability to pry the peanut butter jar from the recesses of the refrigerator.  also, it’s creepy.  also, i’m not sure where matthew was going in the first quote.  let’s all be scared together.

but nevertheless, my husband is a changed man.  and let me be clear, this really has nothing to do with elizabeth berkely herself.  matt’s one of those rare men who’s, well, obsessed with his wife.  and if someone asked him if he’d ever have an affair, he’d most likely reply “ew, no!  germs!” while dancing in a jittery circle, shaking his jazz hands.  but that doesn’t mean he can’t get down with the idea of blatant nudity, especially when that nudity is featured as part of a “serious” role and played by jessie from saved by the bell.  it’s really all too delicious to think elizabeth actually thought this movie would be the first step in a promising career.  i mean if we would have drank each time we saw her snatch we’d both be dead by now.  then who would ava have to kick the crap out of?  who?

if you haven’t seen showgirls let me take a moment to lift my jaw off the butter splattered floor.

it is the best movie ever made.

and i mean that with every ounce of my raisin of a heart.

first of all, elizabeth, or should i say, “nomi”, is angry.  all the time.  at everything.  and she’s not one of these quiet, brooding types who kills her mother and no one knows it until they can smell the rotting body (oh, i just ruined your appetite?  well, people pay good money for that so i expect my check in the mail).  she’s more of the “let me bang my hands and head and feet and torso and ass against every hard object possible like cars or brick walls while spitting at the mouth and offering everyone within a twenty foot radius of me hateful, foreboding looks of angst.”  it. is. magical.

and there’s the snatch.  and the tits.  tits and snatch.  snatch and tits.  little more snatch with a dash of tits.  maybe elizabeth got confused and thought there was some sort of oscar given for random shots of snatch and tits and/or tits and snatch.  gotta lot of genitalia going on in this paragraph.  just like the movie.

but i have to say i was impressed.  with the supporting cast.  not only did they manage to get angry like normal people in this film, but they managed to do a decent job of acting.  quite a nice surprise in a field of random snatches.

lastly, snatch.  i mean, the story line.  somehow the protagonist, “nomi”, travels into las vegas with some elvis impersonator who leaves her stranded at a casino and steals her luggage.  somehow, at the end of the movie, “nomi” manages to get picked up by the same guy while she’s hitch hiking and gives him hell for stealing her shit which is made evident by the truck swerving willy nilly all over the road in the closing scene.  color me conservative but 1) she wouldn’t see that same guy again in real life and 2) reckless driving is no laughing matter.  neither are snatches.

i suppose the main highlight of the film was one “henrietta ‘mama’ bazoom” who acts as a big breasted MC of sorts at the Cheetah, the strip club where “nomi” “works” at the beginning of the film.  it’s delightful the way her top is mechanically fashioned to reveal her “bazooms” at any given moment.  simply delightful.

so all in all matt and ericka give this movie three snatches and two tits.  and a request to have our dignity shipped back to us.

p.s. – matt upgraded our direct tv package and now we get hbo, show time and skinemax.  snatches for everyone.

a story.

a day late but still…

we were supposed to write a short story based on this prompt:

An art opening at a lavish downtown gallery. A car crashes through the plate glass window. The driver’s door opens, and an eight-year-old girl steps out.

Little Girl

The whole goddamn thing broke, fell like a shiny wall of water. And fourteen shards of glass bit into her face.

People were at her feet. Two waiters, one a young Asian girl with blood at her temple and the other, an older white woman, squirming like a hooked worm. But the window…

“Jesus Christ, Viv, shut the fuck up. Can’t you see people are hurt? Who gives a shit about the window?” Paul said. He was hunched over, bracing himself onto his knees as if he had just sprinted and needed to catch his breath. He was an older man and Viv said a short prayer that he didn’t have a heart attack. It was the last thing she needed.

She had been planning this show for six months, an exhibit of her likeness etched in mirrors of different shapes and sizes. And now pieces of her work, the inner workings of an untamed mind scattered at her feet, lodged into skin. She glanced at herself in the remaining mirrors that echoed the chaos. She was thin in a cream cocktail dress that flirted at her knee. Her hair had been brushed into an up do and now a singular, soulful strand kissed her cheek, her hands hung limp but her sullen blue eyes…

“For Christ sakes, Viv, stop looking at yourself in the goddamn mirrors!” Paul was upright now, trying to move people out of the way. He pushed her coarsely against the crowd and made his way to the car that seemed to have driven through the gallery’s window and crushed her dreams on its own accord.

But the car hadn’t driven itself.

“Tina.” Paul was hoarse, running strained fingers through his salt and pepper hair. He looked as if he actually was having a heart attack and Viv nearly joined him when she saw Paul’s eight-year-old daughter walk out of the car with barely a scratch on her.

“Stop sleeping with my daddy!” Tina screamed and the mirrors, Viv’s lips quivered along with the winding tube of her bowels.

It isn’t fair how everyone ruins everything for me, Viv thought, admiring her flushed cheeks in a jagged piece of glass.

stick figure saturday: me, naked

what’s that? i have a fabulous ass, you say? why, thank you. and if you’d like to see this ass permanently be sure to subscribe to my RSS feed or by email. do it for the ass.

the moment you’ve all been waiting for: me, naked.  i thought i’d go ahead and reveal my post nursing body.  although it’s not drawn to scale – my left boob is smaller than my right in reality so reverse it.

feel free to use this photo any way you see fit.  except that way.  that’s just gross.

your turn:

hahahahaha! wait…what?

what’s that? i have a fabulous ass, you say? why, thank you. and if you’d like to see this ass permanently be sure to subscribe to my RSS feed or by email. do it for the ass.

this was the red writing hood meme i posted for this week (courtesy of webook) at the red dress club.

An art opening at a lavish downtown gallery. A car crashes through the plate glass window. The driver’s door opens, and an eight-year-old girl steps out.

i’m not even going to pretend the dog ate it.  i didn’t finish it.  nor did i start it.  instead, i watched the real housewives of d.c.  woops.

but i won’t beat up on myself too bad.  i don’t have the muscle tone for that.  instead, i thought i’d do something productive and introduce a 30 day installment here at alabaster cow, instructing you on how to build a subpar blog.  i appreciate the conferences that teach us how to be good bloggers, the instruction booklets that outline how to become successful in the blogging world but i’m over receiving “helpful,” “kind,” and “relevant,” instruction.  so i’ve decided to shit all over this blog post and make you read it.

HOW TO BUILD A SUBPAR BLOG: TIP NUMBER ONE

wear jorts.  like it’s your job.

“now how can jorts make me a subpar blogger, ericka?  jorts are incredibly economical and just flat out make sense.”  this is true my little alabastard but jorts are not without their true merit and that is making you craptastic at blogging.  if you wear jorts the right way they should suffocate your waist and leave your thighs free and easy, causing your blood flow to part ways, pooling in your head and at your feet simultaneously.  now you’re ready to forget about writing that blog post you’ve got stewing in your noggin (because there’s no more room to stew with all that healthy blood in your head) and to find other ways to entertain yourself, like passing out in public or driving your car into shallow ponds.

whew.  that was fantastic.  here’s something else not at all like what i just wrote, but just as important.  i adopted a word.  jess at mal-diction mentioned the site, savethewords.org and i decided to adopt “pamphagous.”  because i like to eat.

speaking of things that are not at all like what i just wrote but just as important, matt told me that i was the best president of a household ever.  i make him refer to me as the president of our household instead of a housewife, otherwise i take his balls.  he’s really hung up on those precious balls of his…

guest post: stephanie could kick my ass.

what’s that? i have a fabulous ass, you say? why, thank you. and if you’d like to see this ass permanently be sure to subscribe to my RSS feed or by email. do it for the ass.

but let’s be honest.  i’m too lazy to put up much of a fight anyway.

Excuses are for Unconscious Drones

No more excuses.  I’ve heard the best of them.  Time to get organized.  I hear too many moms tell me they don’t have ‘time’ to eat healthily.’  It’s bullshit.  It’s laziness!  I find it infuriating.  Why would you preach to your kids when serving them a balanced meal as you’re eating ice cream standing in the kitchen for breakfast? Great examples to teach to your kids.  Make time for yourself.  If your kids are as important as you act, then clean up your diet!!!

The best way to prevent yourself from overeating snacks or eating unhealthy treats on the go is to be prepared. Have you ever looked at the serving size on a nutritional label? Most packages contain more than one serving. Did you know that? Even calorie beverages like juices, sports drinks, etc. So before you tear into your favorite (enter snack or beverage here) make sure you know the serving size – and stick to only one at a time. Eat small, frequent meals and snacks and watch the weight come off and your energy soar!

By keeping your metabolism on an even keel you will also ward off cravings which can lead to binging. My motto has always been, indulge in your favorite things, but in very small doses!  Buy snacks that are nutrient dense.  No more 100 calorie packs of garbage.  Put down the high calorie/sugar drinks your buying at Starbucks.  Find healthy eats you will enjoy.  Buy them in bulk, go home and measure into serving sizes and package one serving into a small ziploc.  You can do this once a week.  The time it takes will save you time, energy, money and FAT on your ASS on the backend.   Like your wallet – or cell phone – don’t leave home without at least one snack.  You will prevent yourself from pulling into a drive thru or gas station for a quick bite if you become hungry while on the go. And, carry H2O in a reusable bottle.


It’s your choice – be unhealthy and make up BS excuses or be an example of health!
thanks stephanie at inquisitive coach for giving us a good kick in the rear (in my case, an exquisitely dimple free derriere).  now where are the donuts?  kidding, stephanie, kidding. :)

i like big butts.

what’s that? i have a fabulous ass, you say? why, thank you. and if you’d like to see this ass permanently be sure to subscribe to my RSS feed or by email. do it for the ass.

the junk in my trunk has returned, my breasts have shrunk to the size of breakfast pastries and i suddenly have to watch my weight.

i’ve never been happier.

and the weird part?  i’m not even being sarcastic.

i didn’t like my nursing breasts.  besides randomly shooting myself in the eye on occasion and helplessly watching as my tits grew out of their top while dining in public, i also wasn’t a fan being attached to somebody else’s mouth on a semi-permanent basis.  and if that makes me a bad mom then screw you.

i also didn’t enjoy the bruises that blossomed all over my pasty white body, my sudden weight drop that had strangers wondering just how many times i stuck my finger down my throat a day and soaking through a perfectly good sports bra like i took a dip in a vat of milk.  a vegan’s worse nightmare by the by.

since weaning my buns have re-inflated, i’ve gained four much needed pounds and my breasts are fit for an ordinary (albeit extremely good looking) woman rather than a porn star with daddy issues.

also, matt’s taken to daddy duty with extreme ease leaving me to catch up on important matters like my facebook correspondence.

life is good.

now who wants to take turns spanking my brand new buns??  easy now, not all at once!

i am not dead. yet.

what’s that? i have a fabulous ass, you say? why, thank you. and if you’d like to see this ass permanently be sure to subscribe to my RSS feed or by email. do it for the ass.

my breasts are now the size of mini-muffins and i went to a strip club.

hi.  it’s good to be back.

dallas was fun though.  except for the part where someone hit our parked car in the parking lot of our hotel while we were out getting waaaaaaaaaasted via taxi service.  figures, right?  oh and matt lost our credit card which turned out to be in his pants that i found in the dryer when we returned home, days after we canceled it.  figures, again.

we met with friends, drank and i saw naked boobies.  so there was that.

operation weaning was a head trip.  my boobs shot up to size f again (they did the same thing when my leche came in) and i was certain they were going to explode in my face.  they did not.  they did hurt like a fucker but i drank it off.  and guess what??  no stretch marks!  all in a seven days work, give or take.  ava’s doing as well as can be expected.  she’ll sometimes make what i call “milk sad eyes”, the type of eyes i’d imagine a heroin addict makes if he’s out of, well, heroin.  she’s strong as ox though because on more than one occasion she’s managed to wrestle off my shirt and give it a go.  she was not pleased with the results.

and i gained four pounds.  so matt and i will be joining the nearby gym and mom will be watching ava in the evenings so we can get our exercise on.  i haven’t exercised in months so i’m scared and i’m already making up excuses.  so far i’ve gotten “large nose,” “against my religion” and “thoughts of physical exertion make me chafe.”  i’m pretty certain none of those will fly.

hey look!  my vacation:

there are others.  i’m just too lazy to show them.  and moral.

oh.  we went to a wax museum.  and i’m giving oprah my angry fist because matt said to imagine she just said something about george clooney.  he knows me.

now to make you throw up in your mouth.  even more:  my husband just handed this no more nursing mother a vodka and cranberry while he plays with, feeds and puts the kiddo to bed.  this is now his duty that he REQUESTED.  that’s right, he requested.  and when i told him now that i’m not nursing i feel bottom heavy, he told me not worry.  he’ll just turn me over and shake me up to even me out.

i would like to clone him.  for spares.

Things that happen on vacation.

1. Your breasts triple in size. I’m sure that’s just a nursing mom in the process of weaning thing but nah. It happens to everyone.
2. Your husband insists on listening to rage against the machine. Because a douche in a limited highlander has a shit ton to be angry about.
3. People stare at your enormous breasts which is unsettling because you’re used to them staring at your ass.
4. You sleep a lot and convince yourself that your child will be up for the same when you get home. Then you break out into a panic attack and scream at the hotel cleaning crew to stop staring at you.
5. You randomly swerve on the highway and prematurely hit the breaks causing tour husband to hit his head against his door. Because driving is hard.
6. You put on make up.
7. You move effortlessly because nothing is crawling up your leg and/or shitting on you.
8. You miss Ava and aren’t even mad that she shits on you. Holding your bowels is hard, too. Just like driving.

To be continued. Preferably when I’m wasted.

winner. and my vacation.

a big congratulations to Vicki Wxxxxxista for winning the $25 gift certificate giveaway to my baby clothes boutique!  you are a lucky lady!

alright folks i’m out starting tomorrow for 7 whole days.  matt and i are getting away and meeting up with some friends for a little debauchery so get ready for drunken posts written from seedy club bathrooms on my phone.  i just hope i keep the nude pics to a minimum.

but in all honesty matt and i are already having panic attacks about leaving ava.  we know she’ll have tons of fun with her popi and mia but we’re thinking we’ll end up cutting the trip short to race right home.  only to remember why we needed the vacation in the first place. :)

i’ll miss you people.
